I have been pleased using some components made by "pro" manufacturers.
My Manley Steelhead is a consumer product although Manley makes a lot of pro gear.
I use Bryston monoblock amps in my home theater. They sound great and construction is bulletproof.
I have a Rane graphic equalizer that has stood the test of time. It replaced "consumer grade" equalizers whose sliders became scratchy and inconsistent after only a year or two.
